Anyone have information, or know of any sites where I could find info on the Ferengi Government. I'm trying to organize an outline on it for a project I'm involved in. Any info would be greatly appreciated.

Well, for starters it looks like you've been reading Shane Johnson. Don't.

As for websites... uh, this hasn't worked?

That has worked very well, and I have gained quite a bit of knowlage, and have a few websites that offer a lot of information. However, most of the websites beyond that are simply repeating what previous one have said or don't have any really useful information, so I haven't filltered through all of them.

Ferengal = lame, made up by fanboys

Ferenginar = name of the Ferengi homeworld

"Ferengal"? Sounds too much like "fungal"...

I always start with Google Groups rather than regular web search; after all, most of the websites are far inferior to an average thread at rec.arts.startrek.tech or related forums. A lot of the questions have already been researched and answered there.

I'd also try the search engine of these forums.

Ferengi = verengt = tightened, constricted (German).

Quark vs. Neroon, who wins?

Their government is in reality, nonexistant, because their bussinesses and corporations are too powerful to allow for one.

the analog to our government would be if Alan Greenspan were in charge (Grand Nagus), the Supreme Court was replaced by the IRS and Congress is composed of the CEOs of the Fortune 500.
